There the rocks appear to be just thrown up onto the dirt as if someone were in a hurry to finish. Very often when we have more flowers.

We decided to let it continuegrowing until we could hnd out what it was. Weeks passed and as Imade my way back to the stmnge plant , it appeared to be a sunflower.It looked thin and t:ill with only one head on it. I decided to baby it along and weed ( f¼ I around it. As I pulled rocks from the area to get to the weeds, I noticed something unusual. The sunflower had not started where I saw it begin. It actually had begun under a big rock and grown under and around it to reach the sun.Ii a tiny little sunflower didn’t a big rock stand in its way of developing, we too have the ability to do the same thing.

Violin makers and scientists try to make instruments «FH I like the Italian violins. However, they are not the same. Why are these old Italian vilins so special? No one really knows. But many people think they have an answer. Some people think it is the age of the violins. But there is a problem here. Not all old violins sound wonderful. Only the old violins from Cremona are special. So age cannot be the answer. Other people think the secret to those violins is the wood. It must be from certain kinds ofDees. It must not be too young or too old. Perhaps the violin makers of Cremona knew something special about wood for violins. But the kind of wood may not be so important. It may be more important to cut the wood in aspecial way. Wood for a violin must be cut into the right size and shape. The smallest difference will change the sound of the violin. Musicians something think that this is the secret of the Italians. Size and shape may not be the answer either. Scientists make new violins that are exactly the same size and shape. But the new ones still do not sound as good as the old ones. Some scientists think the secret may be the varnish ) .It makes the wood look shiny, but it also helps the sound of the instrument. Since no one know what the Italian violin makers used in their varnish,no one can make the same varnish today. There may never be other violins like the violins ct Cremona.
